Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters

Psalm 123:2
Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters,
As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,
So our eyes look to the Lord our God,
Until He has mercy on us.

This is a message about our reliance on God as we look to Him expectantly for help. The analogy used is between a maid and her mistress to show the case between us and God. The maid is looking upon the confirmation or approval or guidance from her mistress. She could also be tired and weary and also in a state of submission to her mistress. So too we should be toward God, instead of planning everything ourselves.
